VCFMW Was Great!
This Year, I went to show off Proxima B at the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest! I had a lot of fun, met a lot of you awesome people, and got some great advice/suggestions!I streamed the whole event on YouTube, so if you are interested, check them out on YouTube: The first few streams were a bit laggy, but the rest are good 👍I also have a commentary video talking about the event, as well as all the raw footage I took during the trip:VCFMW was loads of fun this year, and I hope to come again next year! In the meantime, there are some other events to look forward to, such as the Detroit Retro Gaming Show that takes place on November 8th!Read full article on Community Announcements (Tangerine47)AnnouncementsOfficial

The full game is majorly incomplete, and with this demo, we're hoping to get feedback about what we should change and what we should add. So make sure to download it on the 11th!
